The 3203 Switch Matrix is a CANbus-based switch-matrix system with an Ethernet control interface that is able to support full fan-out configurations from 8x8 to 16x16. It operates over a frequency range of 20 to 1,100 MHz. To compensate for system insertion losses, all inputs have high-linearity amplifiers. An EWAB version can be accessed from anywhere in the world via a TCP/IP protocol on 10BaseT networks using an HTTP 1.0 interface. Each matrix comes equipped with a Windows-based computer and front-panel and a touch screen for manual override. Packaging is a 3U rack-mountable chassis with redundant power supplies matched for EMI integrity. Isolation is 55 dB minimum input-to-output, 30 dB minimum output-to-output with a common input. VSWR is 2.0:1. DOW-KEY MICROWAVE CORP., Ventura, CA. (805) 650-0260.
